No 1436220 Sgt Akrill,
Sgts’ Mess,
Raf. Station,
East Wretham,
Thetford,
NORFOLK.
Saturday 6.3.43.
Dear Mum,
Pleased to hear from you yesterday, when parcel arrived. It begins to seem a long time when you go to the rack for mail several days & find none. The contents of the parcel have already been sampled. The sausage rolls were mighyt good – oh gee! But the mince-pies were a sight better, even. Thank you for sending on the letter from Sgt. Hughes.
[underlined] MONDAY [/underlined] Didn’t get any more done on Sat as the boys came up & wanted me to go into Bury St. Edmunds with them. Think it’s a good idea to get away now & then. Last night I went for a lovely long walk
[page break]
[underlined] 2 [/underlined]
& looked in the pretty little church in the village. There’s nowhere I can get to a service. It’s a really unusual village. The camp is in the Hall grounds on the edge of the park. The officers & Waafs are billeted in the Hall. To get to the village there’s a mile & a half’s walk across the park & through some woods along the Hall Drive. Then you get to the [underlined] beginning [/underlined] of the village – a couple of cottages in the park – the school & the village hut (now the YMCA canteen) & the church. At the end of the park is the vicarage & a [deleted] couple [/deleted] farm, & a few more cottages. Then there’s another rather desolate lane for another mile & a half & you get to the remainder of the village – a tumble-down windmill, a few cottages the village store
[page break]
3
and the famous & much loved “Dog & Partridge” The station is over half a mile beyond that & beyond the station lie acres of young pines. This is certainly a desolate spot!
I’ve now got quite settled in here now & could have some enjoyable rides when Lizzie’s fit again. I think we look like being here for some time tho’ there may be a sudden move when our parent-station is serviceable again. They’re extending the runways. It’s a lovely place near the small town of Mildenhall on the edge of the fens. I shall like this place better when the temperature goes up!!! We always pull old Moffats leg when he wakes up every morning groaning of the cold & tell him we thought
[page break]
[underlined] 4 [/underlined]
these [deleted] C [/deleted] tough Canadians were used to it.
Spent the last few days picking up all the ‘gen’ I can on our new aircraft and equipment and had a few lectures on them. Jock is now able to hobble around but is still indefinitely grounded. I actually did an hour’s flying one day!!
There’s not a ‘drome at Thetford & Joyce Blow couldn’t have been here but there are quite a few stations around.
You seem to have had a right old time threshing. You’ll be glad it’s done. Ros says you still have 2 girls. I do hope Daddy’s alright Wonder if Miss Moakes & Miss Witham came for the week-end
Have you seen the Henry’s again lately? Please thank Mrs. H.
[page break]
[underlined] 5 [/underlined]
for her present and tell Mr. H. that I [underlined] did [/underlined] enjoy my stay at Honington though I wasn’t allowed to stay. Did I tell you about the fellow who went to Grantham, Devon, Kent, Bury St. Edmunds & home to Liverpool between each before arriving here nearly a week later! It wasn’t Mr. H’s fault but it was very funny. There’s a mistake in the Official list of Squadrons & nobody’s bothered to alter it. They treated us just like Lords!
Wonder how the garden’s doing – if the shallots &c are alright. Tell Sis & Nip I want to hear all about their activities & acquaintances – Aggie D., Miss E-D-B. & of course Mrs Beet (if nobody’d done her in yet)
Isn’t the weather perfect – tho’ the nights are cold.
[page break]
[underlined] 6 [/underlined]
Well, will go & see what’s for tea. Food’s not so bad here.
Enclosing £5
Love to all
[underlined] Bill [/underlined]

Description
An account of the resource
Bill has received her parcel and letter. Visited Bury St Edmunds. Describes area around camp and where it is in relation to part of the village. Would be a good place to use his bike when it is repaired. May remain there but could move if parent station near Mildenhall becomes serviceable - currently extending the runways. Catches up with home and farm news.

reunion in 1968. The new owner of his house could not have recall his from when I telephoned a few weeks Back. However, as I had never seen his log book or talked of 101 I never knew that Corkill was his skipper or that you were the nav!
From my records I can add extra details of the crew now:-
[picture of two medals]
PILOT: K.D. CORKILL. VR. DFC AWARDED c. 9/44
NAV: YOURSELF “ “ “ c. 11/44
F/E: E.A.F. COLE “ “ “ c 10/44
W/OP: C. MANSER “ DFM “ “

SPECL/W/OP: P.N.D. SKINGLEY “ DFC “ c 11/44
Hope you have some photos from your 101 days? Shots of 101’s Lancs are particularly hard to come by due no doubt to the extra secruity [sic] and lack of film.
Will contact you soon. Are you still in the RAF? Yours sincerely

THE DISTINGUISHED FLYING CROSS
Awarded to officers and warrant officers of the R.A.F. and Dominion Air Forces for acts of exceptional valour, courage, or devoting to duty while flying in active operations against the enemy. The ribbon is one and a quarter inches wide and has alternate violet and white stripes, one-eighth of an inch wide, running at an angle of 45o downwards towards the wearer’s left. An heraldic description of the Cross, which is of silver, is “a Cross flory, terminated in the horizontal and base bars with bombs, the upper bar terminating with a rose, surmounted by another cross composed of aeroplane propellers charged in the centre with a roundel within a wreath of laurels a rose winged ensigned by an Imperial Crown, thereon the letters R.A.F. On the reverse side the Royal Cypher above the date 1918.”
THE DISTINGUISHED FLYING MEDAL
Awarded to N.C.O.’s and airmen of the R.A.F. and Dominion Air Forces for exceptional valour, courage, or devotion to duty while flying in active operations against the enemy. The design and colours of the ribbon are the same as those of the D.F.C., except that the diagonal stripes are one-sixteenth of an inch in width. The Medal, which is of silver and oval shaped, bears “Our Effigy on the obverse, and on the reverse, within a wreath of laurels, a representation of Athena Nike seated on an aeroplane, a hawk, rising from her right arm above the words, ‘For Courage.’ The whole ensigned by a bomb attached to the clasp and ribbon by two wings.”
